Maximize your waterfall flow with the Master DW Waterfall pump
A common mistake that beginner water gardeners often make is
that they fail to take the height and width of their waterfall
into consideration, when they purchase a waterfall pump. Because
of this, it is quite common for water gardeners to underestimate
the size of the pump required for their pond.
Calculating the proper pump for waterfalls can be tricky,
because waterfall pumps are rated by both GPH and maximum
waterfall height. To estimate your waterfall's height, you must
measure the vertical height from the top of your pump to the top
of your waterfall or stream. In addition, you must add another
foot of height or lift for every 10 feet of hosing you will be
using (this will allow for loss of volume from resistance within
the hose). To calculate the required pump GPH, a general rule of
thumb is that each inch of width of the channel will require an
extra 100 GPH. For example, if your stream or waterfall spillway
will be 10 inches wide, you will need a pump that produces an
excess flow of 1000 GPH at your waterfall's height.
Do not make the mistake of underestimating the pump size that
you require, otherwise, your waterfall will be reduced to a
trickle of water. If you have a large waterfall, you will need a
specialized pump that will provide you sufficient GPH. GardenSM.com is proud to
introduce a new product line of high-end Master DW submersible
waterfall pumps that can run at ratings of up to 2780 GPH. The
pumps in the Master DW series have been designed for medium to
large ponds, for particularly dirty water, and to create
waterfalls.
One of the most significant benefits of the Master DW series is
that they have been designed to be clog-free. In addition to
their built-in double filtration intake that can filter waste
particles up to 8mm in size, all Master DW pumps feature an
anti-clog system which consists of a double-rotation impeller.
This "self-cleaning" feature is particularly useful when there
is an abundance of leaves and sediment in your pond water. If
one of the rotors is ever blocked by an object, the impeller
will reverse direction, until the object is removed and normal
operating status can be restored. And if these two fail-safe
anti-clog mechanisms are not enough, the pump can also be
combined with external filters for increased filtration.
The Master DW currently comes in 1430 GPH (Master DW 5500) and
2780 GPH (Master DW 10500) versions. Both run on SICCE's
patented NRG energy system, which utilizes magnet-synchronous
motors for exceptional power and reliability. However, the 10500
model is a top-of-the-line pump which offers an unprecedented
10,500 lt/h power/head performance at 10 mt.
The simplicity and reliability of the Master DW's synchronous
motors, and its fail-safe anti-clog system, combined with the
most sophisticated electronics make the Master DW a truly unique
product.
